DiJonai Carrington - WNBA News, Rumors, & Updates

Provides spark in win Carrington chipped in 10 points (3-6 FG, 4-6 FT) and two rebounds across 19 minutes in Saturday's 84-83 win over the Aces.

Impact Carrington saw a slight bump in playing time in her second appearance of the season, providing a spark off the bench. The 28-year-old guard led Chicago's second unit in scoring after providing nine points in 17 minutes during her season debut. Carrington will likely require some more time to ramp up to a full workload, though a significant uptick in playing time isn't guaranteed, considering she's currently competing for minutes with Jacy Sheldon, Rachel Banham and Gabriela Jaquez.

Thursday will mark Carrington's first action of the 2026 campaign after missing time with a left foot sprain, so it's fair to assume she'll have her minutes monitored.
